In fact, with so many years of decline, aside from the area around the town, the Hamlet Region is mostly wilderness, with only the old route leading outward forming some villages and towns.
The so-called wilderness that Lance is developing now is just the section north of the town leading to the ruins, while most other places have long been covered by dense forests.
He proceeds through the dense forest, constructing the location and route in his mind as he goes.
The area circled out by Boslake is Bastia's path to Hamlet, a desolate region bordered by the Mountains and Bastia, unclaimed by any of the three territories.
Therefore, there are no towns in that area, not even a few villages, all covered by wildly growing dense forests.
Even if there were once villages, they are gone now because Warwolves came from this direction last time.
